not the latest binary ... i didn't check the build for that ... but it
looks like that mac is off line

in the meantime:

ua error : function call:
...ata/contextmacosarm64/tex/texmf-osx-arm64/bin/mtxrun.lua:6673:
attempt to index a nil value (field 'mesh')

in that mtxrun.lua file go to those lines and comment the mesh bit or
replace it with

     local mesh = vector.mesh

     if mesh then

         local ismesh  = mesh.ismesh
         local totable = mesh.totable

         setinspector("mesh",function(v)
             if ismesh(v) then
                 inspect(totable(v))
                 return true
             end
         end)

     end

do the same at the end of l-math.lua in order to be able to make a format.

If Mojca gets the machien online i'll update. Sorry for the problem,

Hans
